@christianschwaegerl @fsinn @jamie That's the classical model, yes, and it's unfortunate that they have to rely on such an external influence on their integrity and this needs to change.

And it slowly is, both legally (e.g. publicly financed journalism can be one solution to avoid this conflict of interest) as well as illegally (content is reused without permission for "AI" training, or simply shared online for free so that every human has access to the information)

@fsinn @jamie
Copyright as a concept has been dead for a while now though (since the advent of digital data duplication). Society just has a hard time accepting and dealing with that. And the current "AI"-induced crisis is another symptom of that.
